Lessons for the Resistance Movement - Season 1, Episode 46

In this episode, we introduce the song "No Parade for Kings". We then talk about the horrors of an American President being so driven by ego that he wants a military parade like dictators Putin, Erdogan, Bukele, Orban, and Kim Jung Un. Allowing this to happen, shifts the overton window to the right as it brings a previously absurd idea into the mainstream discussion and it looks like taxpayer money is going to be used to placate Trump's dictator whims but meanwhile they are throwing people off of Medicaid and destroying social safety nets and labor unions.

In this episode, we introduce the song"Penguin's Parade (MAGA Rising)". We then talk about how Trump, similar to the Penguin in Batman may be building a MAGA army with his loyalty-inspired pardons that create a militia indebted to him if he decides against a peaceful transfer of power again or decides to never hold elections in 2028. I wonder if the creator of Batman's Penguin ever thought there would be a real-life character acting like the Penguin?

In this episode, we introduce the reggae-ska fusion song "Turn It Around" inspired by Bob Marley and bands like Goldfinger and then we talk about the fictional Gilead dystopia from Margaret Atwater's "The Handmaid's Tale", the countries she reportedly derived her book from in aggregate and whether America is on the precipice of life imitating art. Essentially, is America becoming Gilead and is it too late to turn it around? or like June from "The Handmaid's Tale", are Americans ready to stand up against authoritarianism and fight for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? Only time will tell!

Lessons for the Resistance Movement - Season 1, Episode 42

In this episode, we introduce the song talking about the intention of America's founders as they created America from the Boston Tea Party to the Constitutional Convention and introduce the discussion with the song "The People Declare". We decided to put together this podcast after watching Trump try to obtain the original declaration of independence but then couldn't tell the media what it meant to him. What the declaration means to most Americans is that we wanted self-rule but not by a tyrant, dictator or a monarch and that we were asserting our right for self-determination as a country and were revolting against control by the crown. We are still a part of this great experiment and the only way we keep our republic is if we fight for it and keep it out of authoritarian hands. We are still working on creating a more perfect union, currently this period, if we choose, could be: 1) a permanent capture of America by authoritarians against the aims of the great experiment and the great experiment is over and has failed or it could be a reckoning for Americans everywhere to wake up, declare once again that America, as our forefathers said, is no place to be ruled by tyrants but instead by the people to form a more perfect union!

In this episode, we introduce the song talking about the unrealistic and overly expensive vanity project "Golden Dome". We then dive into the specifics around Trump's latest expensive nonsensical and likely unattainable goal to create a dome over North America like the Iron Dome while putting the country even deeper into debt. The rest of America is still waiting on these things he was supposed to do for working people and yet... nothing, just grift!

In this episode, we introduce the song saying goodbye and good riddance to Elon Musk "Hey Hey, You can't walk away." We then dive into the harms that Elon Musk perpetrated on America and make sure that this is recorded for posterity how much of a failure he was and America is glad this fascist is out of power and back to his video games and aspirations to travel to Mars and leave the rest of the America behind. Never let him forget the destruction he wrought on America. He is gone but not forgotten! Keep up the pressure to show him how unappreciative we are of his destroying the government, people's livelihoods, government services, and our ability to operate as a democracy for the people not for the billionaires.

Lessons for the Resistance Movement - Season 1, Episode 37

In this episode, we introduce the song for Polish resistance members against far right fascist movements attempting to take control of their country and the rest of the world "Na Rozdrozu - At the Crossroads". We then dive into how the far right fascists are gaining in the polls and have started to take a hold in the Polish government elections however, the left party in Poland recently won with a runoff coming up. It is not over, the far right fascists think they have the momentum but people need to wake up and realize that every time there is a rise of far right fascists we have a global conflict. Polish people need to reach out and make the right decision unlike Americans who handed their country to a far right fascist dictator and now have been captured while the American people don't even realize they have been captured yet. Don't let the far right fascists capture your government, too! Your future and your children's future depends on democracy, freedom, liberty and equality for all.
